:If anything, the "about" link should replace the wikinode. The wikinode idea doesn't seem to have widely caught on, but most wikis have some sort of about page. Really, a wikinode seems like just one kind of about page. If you took any other about page and added a list of seven similar wikis, you would have a wikinode, amirite?
